Dark Deity

Plus, extra DLC content for those who just can’t get enough.

Coromon

This one’s half off. Sweet deal.

Ah, "Coromon." It’s like Pokémon but feels fresh. Over 100 monsters to catch, and they come with elements, traits, skills—the whole shebang.

The name says it all. It’s a cafe. With cats. You inherit this run-down place, and now it’s your mission to make it fab. Besides cats, you’ve got humans to deal with—villagers dropping by, new recipes to discover, and maybe a mystery here and there. It’s got that heartwarming thing going for it, with a dash of renovation drama. Can I say drama for interior decorating? Well, I just did.
